      Pros

      Having a job. Being able to impact an audience with a positive message.

      Cons

      The corporate structure of this company and the decisions of the top managers suggest there is no Christianity in the company. They treat people like they are cattle. It's ALL about bottom line dollars. The mission is a convenient thing they use to appeal to their audience....nothing more, nothing less.

      Thank you for your review. We want to start by saying that we truly value our employees and realize that they are the heart and soul of this company and we would be nowhere without them. While Salem’s content may be Christian, family themed and conservative, we are a publicly traded, for-profit company that has a fiscal responsibility to our shareholders, stakeholders, and other employees. Changes to our markets that affect staffing are always hard to make but we try to be as open and transparent about them as possible. If you want to discuss this further as well as ideas for us to improve as a company then we encourage you to contact our corporate HR department at 805-233-3129.

      Pros

      Great supportive local environment, people called to work there to support the mission.

      Cons

      Corporate digital leadership is disjointed and systems are chaotic. Actual delivered campaigns are inevitably flawed and mis managed. Retaliatory, narcisstic, abusive corporate digital leadership. Constant systems changes and zero assistance in navigating. More and more digital agency and other jobs outsourced to Asia. Salespeople are exhausted and burned out by programs failing. Zero accountability taken by Ad Ops team for mistakes or extrene lag time in responses from internal automated systems. Salary cuts to 'help the company' plays on the mission minded employees, taking advantage of employees good intentions by underpaying them compared to industry. No 401K match.
